Centrepiece
The more Im with you pretty baby
The more I feel my love increase
Im building all my dreams around you
My happiness will never cease
But nothings any good without you
Cause baby youre my centrepiece
I buy a house and garden somewhere
Along a country road a piece
A little cottage on the outskirts
Where we can really find release
But nothings any good without you
Cause baby youre my centrepiece
Hey baby come and go
Repeat first and second verse

Centerpiece
(Harry Edison / Jon Hendricks)
The more I'm with you pretty baby
The more I feel my love increase
I'm building all my dreams around you
My happiness will never cease
But nothing's any good without you
Cause baby you're my centrepiece
I buy a house and garden somewhere
Along a country road a piece
A little cottage on the outskirts
Where we can really find release
But nothing's any good without you
Cause baby you're my centrepiece

Harrys House-centerpiece
Heatwaves on the runway
As the wheels set down
He takes his baggage off the carousel
He takes a taxi into town
Yellow schools of taxi fishes
Jonah in a ticking whale
Caught up at the light in the fishnet windows
Of bloomingdales
Watching those high fashion girls
Skinny black models with raveen curls
Beauty parlor blondes with credit card eyes
Looking for the chic and the fancy
To buy
He opens up his suitcase
In the continental suite
And people twenty stories down
Colored currents in the street
A helicopter lands on the pan am roof
Like a dragonfly on a tomb
And business men in button downs
Press into conference rooms
Battalions of paper-minded males
Talking commodities and sales
While at home their paper wives
And paper kids
Paper the walls to keep their gut reactions hid
Yellow checkers for the kitchen
Climbing ivy for the bath
She is lost in house and gardens
Hes caught up in chief of staff
He drifts off into the memory
Of the way she looked in school
With her body oiled and shining
At the public swimming pool ...
* * *
The more Im with you, pretty baby
The more I feel my love increase
Im building all my dreams around you
Our happiness will never cease
cause nothings any good without you
Baby youre my centerpiece
Well find a house and garden somewhere
Along a country road a piece
A little cottage on the outskirts
Where we can really find release
cause nothings any good without you
Baby youre my centerpiece
* * *
...shining hair and shining skin
Shining as she reeled him in
To tell him like she did today
Just what he could do with harrys house
And harrys take home pay

If Youre Not Gonna Love Me Right
(m.seward)
Hey, oh
Hey yeah
Hey baby, hey baby
The phone is ringing
And Im running late
Ive no time to get it
coz Im expecting you at eight
Heard your voice on the message
Im surprised you called
Said youre all tied up
And you aint comin at all
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
If youre not gonna love me right, oh
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
(baby dont love, baby dont love me)
At all
Another box of roses outside on my porch
Twelve long excuses none of them stop the hurt
Wheres this going, do you really care?
Is this real love, I dont know anymore I swear
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Baby dont make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all

If youre not gonna love me right

Baby just make me crazy
Baby, I want you here
If youre not here it makes me feel like
I cant trust you
You make me crazy if you really love me
You see
Oh, I get confused when you hold me next to you
I wanna go further, oh baby yes I do
I just cant hold on to something that wont last
So wed better slow down, and maybe not go so fast
Maybe not go so fast
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
(if youre not gonna love me right)
If youre not gonna love me
Baby dont love me, baby dont love me, baby dont love me
If youre not gonna love me right
If youre not gonna love me right
Baby, dont love me at all
Youre just gonna make me crazy
If youre not gonna love me right

Baby dont love, baby dont love me

Out Of Time
(jagger/richards)
You dont know whats going on
Youve been away for far too long
You cant come back and think you are still mine
Youre out of touch, my baby
My poor discarded baby
I said, baby, baby, baby, youre out of time
Well, baby, baby, baby, youre out of time
I said, baby, baby, baby, youre out of time
You are all left out
Out of there without a doubt
cause baby, baby, baby, youre out of time
You thought you were a clever girl
Giving up your social whirl
But you cant come back and be the first in line, oh no
Youre obsolete my baby
My poor old-fashioned baby
I said baby, baby, baby youre out of time
Well, baby, baby, baby, youre out of time
I said, baby, baby, baby, youre out of time
Yes, you are left out
Out of there without a doubt
cause baby, baby, baby, youre out of time

But that was because I never understood
Just how much in love with me you were
But you paid your dues
Now Im devoted to you

Always want you to do an encore
Youre the star of my show, ooh, baby, baby
Used to be a time

Now, baby youre the centre of attraction
See your name shinin brighter than the sun

Youre no good...baby youre no good

Youre no good, youre no good

On bended knee
But I wouldnt blame him
If he said to me

Sweet Nothings

Uh-huh honey
All right
My baby whispers in my ear
Mm, sweet nothings
He knows the things I like to hear
Mm, sweet nothings
Things he wouldnt tell nobody else
Secret, baby
I keep it to myself
Sweet nothings
We walk along hand in hand
Mm, sweet nothings
Yeah, we both understand
Mm, sweet nothings
He certainly takes
The time to read my book
My baby, give me that special look
Sweet nothings
Mm, sweet nothings
Uh-huh honey
Im sitting on my front porch
Mm, sweet nothings
Well, do I love you?
Of course

And said
Come in darling
Thats enough for tonight

Can`t Take My Eyes Of You
Youre just too good to be true.
Cant take my eyes off you.
Youd be like heaven to touch.
I wanna hold you so much.
At long last love has arrived.
And I thank God Im alive.
Youre just too good to be true.
Cant take my eyes off you.
Pardon the way that I stare.
Theres nothing else to compare.
The sight of you leaves me weak.
There are no words left to speak.
But if you feel like I feel.
Please let me know that its real.
Youre just too good to be true.
Cant take my eyes off you.
I need you baby, and if its quite all right,
I need you baby to warm a lonely night.
I love you baby. trust in me when I say ok:
Oh pretty baby, dont let me down I pray.
Oh pretty baby, now that I found you, stay.
And let me love you,
Oh baby let me love you, oh baby....
Youre just too good to be true.
Cant take my eyes off you.

Cant take my eyes off you.

What Good Is I Love You
(ellie greenwich / mike rashkow)
You say you love me
More than you could ever love her, ah, ha, ha
But circumstance has made you stay by her side
Youll never leave her
God knows youve tried
But I understand
A man aint nothing but a man
Oh, why do I need you when we cant be together?
What good is I want you, when youre passing me by?
Oh, I cant keep on saying I love you forever
What good is I love you, when youre saying goodbye? , ahh, baby, yeah
No-one has ever made me so very happy
When were together, baby
Everything is all right
Here on my pillow
Alone at night
Cant you see my heart keeps on crying?
Somethings telling me youre lying
Why do I need you when we cant be together?
What good is I want you, when youre passing me by?
Oh, I cant keep on saying I love you forever
What good is I love you, when youre saying goodbye? , yeah, mmm, why?
Said Im thinking about you now baby, why, ooh, why should i?
What good is I need you when we cant be together?
What good is I want you, when youre passing me by?
Oh, I cant keep on saying I love you forever
What good is I love you, when youre saying goodbye?

Stay With Me
(pagowoy/weiss)
Where did you go
When things went wrong, baby,
And who did you run to,
To find a shoulder
To lay your head upon.
Baby, wasnt I there,
Didnt I take good care of you.
Oh no, I cant believe you leaving me...
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby...
Wont you stay with me, baby,
I cant go on...
Who did you touch
When you need tenderness.
I gave so much
And in return I found happiness.
Baby, what did I do
Maybe I was too good, too good for you.
No, no, I cant believe you leaving me.
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby.
Wont you stay with me, baby,
I cant go on.
Remember,
You said youre always gonna need me,
Remember,
You said youd never, ever leave me,
Remember, remember, Im asking you, begging you.
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, baby...
Wont you stay with me, baby,
I cant go on, cant go on...
Stay with me, baby,
Stay with me, stay with me, baby.
Wont you stay with me, baby,
I cant go on...

Dont Say Nothings Changed
Written by kim wilde
Dont say nothings changed with you
I can hear it in your sighs
The way that you cant look me in the eyes
Its spelling out bad news
So dont say its the same we two
No I cant say Im suprised
cos I could see it in your eyes
And no you dont have to lie
Baby you dont have to lie
Why cant it be like yesterday
The feelings gone
But I just want to say that I love you know
And Im holding on for you
Is that a silly thing to do
So dont say nothings changed with you
Now were running out of time
And Ive got to give up something that was mine
Oh baby doesnt it seem cruel
So dont say its the same we two
cos were already worlds apart
And now the lonliness will start
Oh boy youre breaking my heart
Baby youre breaking my heart
So dont say nothings changed with you

Since You Walked Into My Life
Time after time
Everything that Ive tried
Cant do nothing at all
Everywhere I walk, nowhere to turn
I was losing my way
Crying every day
I was givin up and you walked into my life
I never knew anything about love
In the world that I know
Lovers come and go
Nobody anywhere, talk like you do
Saying dreams can come true
Then you made me feel just like a man should feel
Chorus:
Ever since you walked into my life
All at once, I feel so strong inside
Anything you ask of me
Ill do it faithfully
Since you walked into my life (into my life)
Yeah, girl
Youre the only one for me
Oh, girl
Oh baby (oh baby)
Now Ive got a reason to live
And oh darling
How I love the sweet love you give (oh baby)
And I wanna spend my life with you
Wanna make your dreams come true
Every step you take I wanna be with you
Chorus
I am learning that the touch of love is magic
Feel it once, and you will see your world so differently
Nothing stays the way that it was
Everything begins again
Youre not who youve always been
Chorus
Ever since you came into my life
I wanna be with you, girl
Since you walked into
Since you walked into my life
Girl, nothings ever felt
Nothings ever felt so right
Baby, I wanna be with you
Since you walked into
Since you walked into my life
I wanna be with you

Sometimes i feel like i don't know
Sometimes i feel like checkin' out
I want to get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love it won't be long...
Oh sugar, don't you cry
Oh child, wipe the tears from your eyes
You know i need you to be strong
And the day is as dark as the night is long
Feel like trash, you make me feel clean
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen
Baby, baby, baby...light my way
(alright now)
Baby, baby, baby...light my way
You bury your treasure
Where it can't be found
But your love is like a secret
That's been passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house
Where no one can sleep
I guess it's the price of love
I know it's not cheap
(oh, come on)
Baby, baby, baby...light my way

Baby, baby, baby...light my way
Oh...ultraviolet...

When we could sleep on stones
Now we lie together
In whispers and moans
When i was all messed up
And i had opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb
Hanging over my bed
Baby, baby, baby...light my way
(oh, come on)
Baby, baby, baby...light my way

Baby Face
Jim, livin with youd not such fun

Youre not the person that you used to be
And there are people on the street that would go for me

And I said, no, no, no, no, no

I met you in a bar in l.a.

The way you talk, ooohhh, the way you walk
